Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan's fight in Boston this weekend has been cancelled after the Cork boxer was hit with visa issues.
The Mahon fighter had three successful entries before to the States but won't get his visa processed in time for his bout with Diego Adrian Marocchi.
His trainer Packie Collins explained: "The US consulate at the last minute has requested more information on Spike which means Spike might or might not be in Boston in time for his fight."
"Rather than risk arriving in the States too close to the fight and more importantly taking Spike's health into consideration, we have been offered a new fight deal with Golden Boy Promotions and Murphy Boxing."
Collins revealed that O'Sullivan will now focus his attention on a fight in October before a potential world title shot with the details to come.
